This record contains some short gaps in u and v on 31 Aug 93
and 1 Sep 93, and again in the last few days of the record. CMDAC
has prepared an alternate version of the file in which the former
gaps have been bridged by predictive interpolation and the latter
by linear interpolation.  Both the original and alternate versions
of the file are available on this disk. 

The temperature series is quite gappy in the original version of
this file.  In the alternate version most of the gaps have been
filled by linear interpolation.  Portions of the temperature
series that could not be repaired have been removed.
